thanks man.. i attribute that to being in TN there is no flat straight roads here. my daily commute to work consists of 50% back roads so i had alot of time to practice/learn. And i learned with dress shoes lol

in other news i followed trough finally in a timely manor and got the ART pipes swapped put *cry* i'll miss these things but eventually they were too much for a daily with the smell and loudness.






as you can see in the following pic the ART were a leaky ****'s. When i installed them i used new hardware from Motordyne but they still blew. I've read that its because they dont really butt up against the catback.



also finally i installed the camber kit thats been sitting on the shelf for over two years

Exactly the reason I went with FI RHFC in the first place. Had an opportunity to putter around in a tuned 6MT Sedan with full motordyne, and was entirely blown away. The sound was incredible, and although I felt like I could love that noise all day long, I knew in my head that I couldn't live with it.

So I hear you. Just look at it this way: now you get to look back and reminisce about the sound you used to have, without being unhappy with the new set up.

sry long day, here's some potato photos

i got the wedsport sa20r





i took the tires off the stocks so the 255 is a little thin on the rear 9.5, i may go with 265 nest. The 245 fit very nicely on the 8.5

i may put a 3mm or 5mm spacer in the back also but waiting on the tire change before i do so.

Rears certainly do look stretched.

You know, I liked the gunmetal sport 19s. Are these that much lighter... is that why you switched things up?

So you changing to the resonated cats was due to volume? How long did you have the art pipes on? This is just me but no way I would have changed up the full Motordyne, that sound winding through the mountains is just a thing of a beauty.


I also like the Weds alot better than the sports. Now you need to get those calipers taken care of. Not sure if you have a powder coater near you, if not have you looked into G2 paint? Great reviews and easy to use.

these are wayyy lighter plus i just been wanting some else for a while now.

i had the ART pipes on my car for over a year and loved them, but its getting old. Having that level of sound and the exhaust smell on my daily. I really miss them and have thought about just putting them on the shelf but i'm happy with the sound and performance I'm getting from the RHFC.

about the calipers i've looked into wraps, i just dont know what color...


in other news here's a pic from thins morning.

Wraps? Just spent the last 20 minutes researching "caliper wrap", and watching videos, etc.

ToXIc, you just blew my mind. LOL

On a red car with black wheels? No, I really don't. I suspect red is your best choice.

But I've been jonesing for amber calipers for years, and this got me thinking about it again.

amber is kewl.. not too brembo but almost..

i was thinking yellow... i've seen a number of red cars with yellow calipers and it kinda works.. if o dont like it i can just peel the **** off
